Latest In Beauty: Red Carpet Collection Box

For those who are unsure of what Latest in Beauty are about, please read on otherwise obviously skip to the good bits. They bring out a certain amount of boxes a year, I think every 2 months or so. You can see what’s in them before you buy which is brilliant and they are normally £5 inc delivery. Over the last few months we have seen some ‘special’ boxes like this which have had a limited amount available and were more expensive. The last was in collaboration with YOU magazine and priced at £9, this box was a whopping £15! Yep much more expensive but AMAZING goodies!

This is one expensive hand cream! Not too keen on the packaging, looks very medical, if that makes sense?! Love the smell, just an normal kind of cream smell but also reminds me of my Nan. Sinks in and leave no residue, will be making this last..

I have a glass nail file and trying this one out I realise how crapola my one is haha! Might be because it cost £1.50. These files are crystallized with Swarovski elements and do a bloody good job at filing your nails with out ruining them or so I have heard..

Smooch – Lipstick (full size) £7.50

I absolutely love the packaging! Cute and sexy. This is Rocking Red and looks like a gorgeous red lippy but really I don’t need any more reds! I have a friend who I think would love this so I might save it for her although she probably has too many reds too..

The pencil is quite soft which and I can imagine a pleasure to use. I only swatched on my hand and I know this will replace my one and only khol pencil that drags when I use it, so well I don’t really use it.

Smashbox – Mascara (full size) £20

This product was the one I was most excited about! I have never tried Smashbox and cannot wait to try this out. The brush is HUGE, I won’t use it yet as I will use my other mascaras first but I will report back!

So overall what a fabulous box! You’d definitely be red carpet ready with this lot. Really excited to try everything out, I nearly cancelled but so glad I didn’t as it’s sold out now. Also for some reason there was a free Clarins product in my basket when I checked out, whoop a Brucie Bonus!
